Nai Harn is a pretty cool place to come, whether it’s for a day or a lifetime! It’s a tiny town located in the most southern-most part of the island.

Poached Breakfast Cafe Rawai
If you’re looking to hang out at a local cafe near Nai Harn, then it doesn’t get much better than Poached Breakfast Cafe Rawai. We have a vibe that’s hard to beat.
We’re located in prime position, right on the beachfront. From our comfy booths, you’ll be looking out over the beautiful white sand beach and crystal clear, turquoise blue waters through the tropical tree canopy. It sounds dreamy, doesn’t it? The Nordic-style minimalist decor, overhanging foliage, neutral colours and great natural lighting, just add to the slow-moving, chilled-out buzz in our cafe. It’s only normal to want to come back again and again.
What better way to start your morning, than with a vitamin D hit from the sun and a caffeine slap from a tasty brew? We’ve got the best coffee this side of the mainland. We know that’s a big statement but we can back it up with some incredible taste. Not only do we source our beans from the best manufacturers around, but our baristas are specialists in their field. They perfectly store the beans to make sure they’re not bitter but are rich and smooth. They also grind the beans and press them by hand so that your coffee has flawless depth.
Whether it’s a frothy cappuccino topped with coffee art, a sweet, thick and creamy caramel macchiato or a milky iced hazelnut latte, we’ve got it all. Our coffee selection is huge, you might even decide to have more than one; you’ll be whizzing around the place!
If you’re not sold on the dream yet, then wait until we show you some of our scrumptious food from our Aussie-inspired menu. We know what you’re thinking, ‘how can a cafe be so good?’. But buddies, believe me, it gets even better!
Why not treat yourself and start your day with some incredible waffles? The ’Strawberry Delight’ is more than just delightful though. Our fluffy, light waffle is topped with a scoop of thick, rich vanilla ice cream, slices of fresh strawberries and banana with a drizzle of maple syrup and crushed almonds to add a crunch. Some people might say it’s not that healthy, but let’s remind ourselves that it’s got 2 of our 5 a day!
We’ve also got some egg-cellent brekkie dishes too. Our eggs are unbeatable and some of the best on the island. The ‘Pulled Pork Eggs Benny’ tastes divine. Our soft homemade sourdough is topped with succulent, slow-cooked pulled pork shoulder, which falls apart at the touch. It’s combined with some flawless flavours and textures. We add crunchy green apple, juicy pomegranate and a velvety apple cider hollandaise. B-E-A-UTIFUL. Who just licked their lips at that?
Veggie-eaters, we’ve not forgotten about you either. The ‘Avocado Smash’ will sort you right out. We cape our sourdough in some buttery avo and top it with some fresh roasted heirloom cherry tomatoes which explode in your mouth. We add crumby feta cheese and creamy poached eggs which are a perfect addition. It’s seriously yummy.
We understand that can all be pretty heavy on the stomach, especially before a big day out. But hold your horses, because we’ve got a tonne of delicious salad dishes to keep you happy. We have some classics such as the Greek, Caesar or Smoked Salmon salad, but we’ve also got some unbelievable options that take salads to a whole new level. The ‘Chicken Cobb’ salad tops the list, it’s full of taste and is mouthwateringly good. We mix tender poached chicken breast, with crispy bacon, soft avocado, sharp blue cheese and a tangy ranch dressing. Who knew salads could taste so good?
